Willow Art

The Willow Tree has a reputation - just from its name - as being an almost melancholic and sad tree, with its leaning branches and long leaves giving it the look that it is almost crying, but not all trees are like that. Paintings by Claude Monet create a powerful appreciation for nature within the brushstrokes of the willows, and photographs of willow trees done at angles closer up show the bright green life of moss and bark on the hanging branches.

Paintings of willow trees are affairs often meant to display the tree's more beautiful side - lush branches filled with green leaves hang low over bridges of mossy banks in a way which is almost bowing to the creator capturing its likeness - a way which you can transfer by placing the posters up on a wall of your own home to accentuate your own styles.
